Three days later, Yang Xiaoyang drove the carriage to the outside of Ezhou City in the night.

The moonlight is not bright tonight, and the black clouds overwhelm the city, but although the city is towering, it cannot cover the sky-high fire in the city.

Yang Xiaoyang didn't even take the horsewhip, because after their horses drank the mash, they would point in the direction and go away by themselves very obediently.

Originally, Yang Xiaoyang was quite unhappy when he saw a horse drinking the same as him, but after finding that he didn't need to drive it, he was a lot happier, and at the same time he occasionally sighed: It's much better to serve than Xiaodi, and you can go where to drink the bowl of mash.

Yang Xiaoyang saw that the city gate was open and the fire in the city was dazzling, and asked suspiciously: "Isn't there a curfew in this Ezhou City?"

Li Congwen looked at the people coming and going in the city, and sighed: "If you want to talk about the curfew in Ezhou City, you have to talk about my old man." Now he should live in this city, and when we enter the city, we will find a restaurant, and I will talk to you about it. ”

Yang Xiaoyang looked Li Congwen up and down and didn't speak. With a gentle touch on the horse's buttocks, the red horse slowly walked towards the city gate.

A few soldiers stood together at the gate of the city and chatted, and when they saw that Yang Xiaoyang and their carriage didn't check anything, they let them go with a wave of their hand, and then continued to talk about their.

The carriage passed through the urn city, and Yang Xiaoyang couldn't help but ask: "Why is the defense of Ezhou City so lax?

Then Yang Xiaoyang saw Li Congwen looking at him with contempt, "Why are you like a person who has never seen the world, what are you doing reporting the blade? Now that the world is peaceful, who will kill people in the street? Besides, there are many garrisons in various places now, who dares to do anything in the city? When the time comes, the city will not be able to leave." ”

Yang Xiaoyang was speechless, turned his head and pretended that the question was not asked by himself, but saw a person walking towards their carriage on the side of the road.

"Are you two new to Ezhou City?" the man looked like a thief, and he kept looking at the two of them when he spoke.

Yang Xiaoyang didn't know why, seeing that the face of the person who came was full of smiles, he just wanted to answer, but was robbed by Li Congwen, "Don't talk nonsense, take my son to the best restaurant in the city, and the reward is indispensable to you." ”

The comers hurriedly agreed, and walked in front of their carriage to lead the way.

After a while, the man led them to a restaurant, and after Ju Yeqi came down with the box, Li Congwen gave the man a tael of silver, and pointed to the jujube red horse and said, "You go and lead the horse down, remember to serve it with good food and drink." ”

The man took the money with a beaming face, and led the carriage away.

Ju Yeqi looked up at the signboard of Tingyang Tower, smiled and patted the box gently.

The box shook slightly.

Yang Xiaoyang stood at the door of the restaurant, heard the continuous laughter in the building, and when he looked again, he saw that it was full of people, and it was very lively.

As soon as the three of them entered the door, a dark-looking Xiao Er greeted him, and his eyes were frighteningly white against the background of his complexion, "What do you need?"

Li Congwen took out his folding fan out of nowhere, and said with a smile: "Upstairs in the private room, serve all the dishes in the store." ”

Yang Xiaoyang knew that Li Congwen was never ambiguous in spending money, and he also knew that he still had more than three hundred taels on him, so he didn't stop it, how much money could he spend on a meal?

Xiao Er was not happy and surprised, and laughed with him, "Childe, I'm afraid the three of you won't be able to eat so much." ”

Yang Xiaoyang hurriedly looked at this little two, but he didn't expect this person to be so sincere.

"It doesn't matter, as long as it's delicious, come and eat as much as you want. Li Congwen patted Xiao Er lightly with a folding fan, "Lead the way." ”

Seeing this, Xiao Er didn't say anything more, and led the three of them to a spacious room upstairs.

As soon as Yang Xiaoyang sat down, he saw a small lake outside the window, and the fire on the lake was dotted, reflecting the dark lake like a starry sky at night.

Xiao Er saw Yang Xiaoyang staring out the window, and said with a smile: "The lake outside is called Youxing Lake, and there are cruise boats every night, which is the favorite place for big officials and distinguished guests and talented and beautiful people in the city." ”

Yang Xiaoyang nodded, and when he saw Li Congwen and Ju Yeyan looking outside with bright eyes, he had a plan for the next trip.

Although he is not interested, Xiao Di probably likes it, and he is afraid that he has to go.

He said to Xiao Er: "Hurry up and serve the food, it's best to serve more at a time, remember to knock on the door when you come in." ”

Xiao Er answered and retreated, closing the door for them.

Ju Yeqi stared at the door for a while, released Xiao Di, took her to the window, pointed to Youxing Lake and said excitedly: "Xiao Di, look, is that lake beautiful?

Xiao Di nodded in amazement, "It's also like a sugar gourd!" As if remembering something, he turned his head to Yang Xiaoyang and shouted, "Little lamb, I'm going to eat sugar gourd later." ”

After chatting for a while, the dishes were ready, there were more than 20 pots, birds, beasts, fish and sheep, and even a pot of beef.

When Xiao Er was serving, he glanced at Ju Yeqi's robe twice, and left without saying much.

Yang Xiaoyang pointed to the pot of beef and said, "This restaurant dares to kill cows? Have they reported to the government? Could this be a dead cow? How could so many cows die at once?"

Li Congwen took a sip of wine, shook his head and said, "This cow is not a ploughing cow, but a specially raised cow. If you want to say why this Ezhou city can kill cattle and eat it, it is because of my old man. In fact, I thought that my former classmate was the eldest son of the Duke of Chu, and now he should be the son of the world. ”

Yang Xiaoyang nodded, after the rebellion of the Eight Kings, Ming Wu did not seal the king again, but just split the fiefs of the previous kings and divided them to a few grandfathers and marquis, and now Ezhou is the fief of the Duke of Chu.

"What did that prince do?" Yang Xiaoyang also took a sip of wine, and the wine that he always felt unpleasant in the past was actually more delicious today.

"That guy's name is Xie Yan, I just entered the school at that time, and I didn't know anyone, so I saw this guy shrinking in the corner, and his eyes were like a mouse seeing a cat. Li Congwen put one foot on the chair, rested his elbow on his knee, and tapped the table with his hand, "I was very strange at the time, so I walked up to him and asked him, 'Are you afraid of people?' He looked at me fearfully and nodded.

Then I was curious, and asked, 'You're not human?' and he shook his head again. ”

Yang Xiaoyang couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this, this is indeed what you can ask.

Li Congwen slapped the table again, "Guess what? He actually cried when I asked two questions! I was dumbfounded, and I had no choice but to find a way to coax him." ”

"How did you coax that?" Xiao Di replied with a very face-saving face.

Li Congwen smiled, "I came to him at that time and whispered in his ear: 'I will tell you secretly, I am also human!' and he stopped crying, but looked at me with a look of adoration. From then on, he dared to talk to me alone. ”

The two and a half people looked at Li Congwen with a blank face after hearing this, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

Li Congwen waved his hand and took a sip of wine, "Don't mention the past, now Xie Yan should live in this city, let's visit tomorrow morning." Xiao Tu, come, try this jade prawn. ”

Yang Xiaoyang saw that Li Congwen took the initiative to take over the work of feeding, so he stopped after taking a bite of each dish and began to think about something.

He originally thought that Ezhou City was a small city, and he could find a descendant who did not violate the Taoist master by asking casually. Now it seems that this person can't be found for a while, if he can drag the prince of Chu Guogong to help tomorrow, it should be more convenient.

It's just that he is not familiar with that Xie Yan, and it seems that he can only tell Congwen. However, it can only be said that there are relics that do not violate the Tao to be handed over, and it is difficult to say much about the specifics.

Yang Xiaoyang didn't think much about it when he had an idea, picked up the wine and took another sip, and saw Ju Yeyan staring at Youxing Lake, and couldn't help but sigh.

These days, I have been thinking about where to get the corpse, and it is best not long after death, otherwise the yin qi is insufficient, and the effect of the medicine will be worse.

As for grinding the soul, although he was determined, he was still unwilling to do it until he had to.

He wished that a wicked person would come to his door now.

Yang Xiaoyang scratched his head in annoyance, feeling that the wine in his mouth was more mellow.

Suddenly, there was a melodious sound of the piano outside the door, although Yang Xiaoyang didn't understand the rhythm, he felt that the person who played the piano must be not low.

Ju Yeqi withdrew his gaze towards You Xinghu, closed his eyes and listened for a while, raising his eyebrows, "This song was originally a praise for the spring in the garden, but it actually played the realm of joy and sorrow, this pianist must be extremely talented." ”

After speaking, he walked to the door first, Yang Xiaoyang didn't want to go, but when he saw Xiao Di staring at him, he had to hold the box and look at it together.

Yang Xiaoyang followed the sound of the piano and saw a curtain in the middle of the lobby at some point, and a figure in the curtain was caressing the strings, vaguely a woman.

At the end of the song, the curtain was opened, and a woman stood up and saluted.

She was masked, only revealing a pair of eyes, Yang Xiaoyang only saw her side face, but he was sure that this woman must be good-looking.

An old woman walked over to the violinist, pulled the violinist and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, this apricot blossom girl is a geisha in our Zhanhua Building. The Dipping Flower Building is on the side, if you want to listen to the music, you should come as soon as possible. ”

After the old woman finished speaking, she led the people away, followed by a sound of emission.

"I didn't expect it to be a geisha from the Qinglou. Li Congwen waved his folding fan, shook his head and said.

Yang Xiaoyang looked at him vigilantly, remembering the ugliness he made in Chang'an last time, and decided that if he proposed to go to the Dipping Flower Building, he would find an inn to sleep in.

Li Congwen glanced left and right, and found that Xiao Er, who had greeted them before, was next to him, pulled him over and asked, "What's so fun on the Star Lake next to it?"

Xiao Er was still in a daze, and he came back to his senses after being pulled for a while, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, which was particularly conspicuous under his dark complexion, "Childe, there is a painting boat on Youxing Lake, you can get on the boat as long as you pay the money." There are luthiers and dancers on board, and you can rent one for your own fun. ”

Li Congwen nodded, and after settling the bill, he beckoned the two of them to visit Star Lake.

Yang Xiaoyang glanced back at the little two, and felt that he was looking at the apricot blossom girl in a daze just now.
